SUNDOWN VEHICLE EVENT by GEORGE BRECHT

+Left: George Brecht, 1961, Two Vehicle Events, Detail of a 3.5 " by 4.5. card. One of many similar kinds of instructions that were given to participants. +Right: Vehicles, drivers & interested students gather before sunset for a performance of George Brecht's "Vehicle Sundown Event". +Location: St Vincent College, Latrobe, PA., parking area behind Sportsman's Hall, 1963. + +Steve Joy took me to meet George Brecht in his studio when I was in residence at St Michael's in Manhattan (c.1962). We became friends and GB mailed instruction cards to me. I brought Steve Joy to St Vincent College when I returned to the monastery from Paris in 1963. GB agreed to provide instructions for an event at St Vincent. For his "Vehicle Sundown Event", GB published a set of about 50 cards to be given to participants who participated in the event with their vehicles. Each card held an instruction to be performed with a vehicle. Drivers were instructed to assemble at sundown in a parking lot and randomly park their vehicles. Then each driver, with a shuffled deck of instructions, would begin performing at the sound of a signal. Participants performed about 50 events such as "turn on lights", "start engine", "stop engine", "open window". This work was performed at St Vincent College under the direction of Stephen Joy with Roman Verostko assisting. c. 1963 ( I can confirm that Fr Melvin Ruprecht participated. I believe it was before I went to Washington as NCE editor, rv0 + + + + diff --git a/static/files/17. George Brecht_event scores/17.blurb.txt b/static/files/17.
